Some time ago, Joe Sample came [D] in contact with Will Jennings,
and for some reason, their minds seemed to click.
And the reason I'm saying all of this is because the next song that we're about to do
is a combination of Joe Sample and Will Jennings,
and perhaps you will recognize this particular song.
[Abm] [Ebm] [Db]
[Eb] [Abm]

[Eb] [Abm]
I play the streetlight
There's no [Dbm] place I could go
[Eb] Streetlight
[Abm] It's the only life I know
Streetlight
[Dbm] There's a thousand parts to play
[Eb] Streetlight
[Abm] Till you play your life away
[Dbm] You let the people see
Just who you wanna be
And every night [Eb] you shine
[Abm] Just like a superstar
[Dbm] That's how the light is played
A dance in class today
It's just you walk, you talk
[Eb] You're who you think you [Abm] are Streetlight
You [Dbm] can run away from time
[Ebm] Streetlight
[Abm] Or a little more time
Streetlight
Thought [Dbm] you'd never, never get old Streetlight
[Eb] [Abm] Are you gonna feel the cold?
There's always lots [Dbm] to sell
A grown-up fairy tale
Press down and always [Eb] smile
[Abm] Behind the silver spoon
[E] And if you keep it [Eb] young
[E] Your song is [Eb] always sung
[E] Your love will fade [Eb] away
Beneath the silver spoon
